Last year we threw our first egg hunt party (because it was the first year that all the kids were old enough to “get it” even a little bit) and we had SO MUCH FUN that we decide to make it a tradition!! So, recently while I was pulling together decorations for this year’s party, I went back to reference the pictures from last year and thought that they might be fun to share. If you are having an egg hunt party this year, here’s a little inspiration…

I decorated the yard with tons of lanterns of various sizes hung in our tree branches…
I lined the garden with pinwheels that I found at Cost Plus World Market…
Instead of a dessert table, I did a “build your own basket” with an assortment of toys from Oriental Trading Company. (Being not quite 2 the kids were a little young for a ton of candy)

Since we had an early morning egg hunt, I put out a brunch spread so everyone could recharge after an energetic hunt!

We “hid” tons of eggs filled with Cheerios, Teddy Grahams and Animal Crackers…

And the kids had a blast finding them!

I got a bunch of bunny ears at the Target dollar bin and they were a big hit!

I’m REALLY looking forward to this year’s egg hunt!! (Especially since the kids can actually hunt for eggs now!!)

    That is absolutely adorable! I have a little tree that I hang eggs from every year as well…decorating the eggs is definitely my favorite part.

    Totally cute idea! The globes in the trees add such a nice canopy! How are you going to do it differently this year? Or maybe just a repeat because it was so nice the first time around?
